Chapter 285 – There is a girl named Xia Mengjue
"It's okay, don't panic, don't panic! Shao Shi just touched Ming Yufei's butt to check for injuries, it's just a check, not harassment!"
Xing Jiangmu's forehead was covered in cold sweat as he hurriedly came to Su Yun and Ming Yufei's side, sitting upright and staring at Su Yun intently.
"The person last night was stabbed in the butt by Shao Shi's sword. Shao Shi just wanted to see if Yufei was the person from last night, there are absolutely no other intentions... Damn it, the emperor's concubine, even if it's for checking injuries, you can't touch her butt!"
A battle raged in his mind: "Why didn't Ming Yufei slap him? Could it be because Shao Shi is too handsome... Is it okay to do whatever you want if you're good-looking?"
After Su Yun finished checking for injuries and calmed down, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart: "Could it be that I touched the wrong butt? Maybe the injured butt is actually on the other side?"
He was itching to act, but Xing Jiangmu stared at him, not giving him a chance.
Su Yun had to give up this idea and focused on studying the contents of the book with Ming Yufei, no longer being handsy.
Xing Jiangmu continued to stare at him, afraid that he would make another mistake.
Ming Yufei also breathed a sigh of relief.
Ying Ying's presentation showed the early capture and dissection of demonized plate goats by the Tongtian Pavilion, revealing special phenomena.
In the early dissections of several plate goats, residual calamity ashes were found inside their bodies, and these calamity ashes were in a burning state, producing calamity fire!
Su Yun was puzzled, pacing back and forth, and asked, "There is a difference between igniting calamity ashes with a visible flame and igniting them with calamity fire. Igniting with a visible flame can provide illumination and be used for smelting. But igniting with calamity fire is extremely dangerous. I have seen someone whose cultivation was completely burned by calamity ashes and calamity fire, unable to survive. Only creatures like calamity ash monsters have the possibility of surviving in calamity fire."
Ming Yufei also stood up and walked around like him, suddenly stopped and looked at him, saying, "But plate goats are not calamity ash monsters! These plate goats appeared in the early stages of the Plate Goat Rebellion, indicating that some plate goats became demonized because they swallowed calamity ashes." n0velUsb.C0m
Su Yun turned around and looked at the girl, "Then why would plate goats swallow calamity ashes and ignite calamity fire inside their bodies? And why didn't later plate goats have calamity ashes or calamity fire inside them?"
Ming Yufei also looked at him, pondering, "Plate goats cannot eat this kind of thing. Plate goats have a high status in Da Qin and are regarded as ancestors. They can eat whatever they want, but they cannot eat calamity ashes, let alone burning calamity ashes. This indicates that in the early stages of the Plate Goat Rebellion, a batch of plate goats was artificially created. It is even possible that countless experiments have been conducted!"
Su Yun walked past her and stopped, saying, "The later plate goats no longer have these calamity ashes and calamity fire inside them, indicating that the people have already understood the mysteries of calamity ashes and demonized plate goats. They can control the art of plate goat demonization freely. Therefore, in the later Plate Goat Compendium of the Tongtian Pavilion, no calamity ashes or calamity fire were found."
Ming Yufei and him walked in opposite directions, took a few steps, and stopped. She looked up and said, "His only flaw appeared in the early stages of the Plate Goat Rebellion. But that rebellion happened 170 years ago, and even the Tongtian Pavilion has no records of where the Plate Goat Rebellion originated from."
Su Yun turned around and said to Ying Ying, "Ying Ying, where were these plate goats captured from? Is there any record of this?"
"I'll look for it!"
Ying Ying quickly searched and said, "I found a total of four cases. One of them occurred in Qingping County, and the other three occurred in Boshan County. The case in Qingping County happened later, while the cases in Boshan County happened in the early stages."
The division of states and counties in Da Qin still follows the system of Yuanshuo and has not been changed.
Su Yun was not very familiar with the geography of Da Qin and asked, "Where is Boshan County?"
"It's a calamity ash city. Most of Boshan County has already been swallowed by calamity fire."
Ying Ying said, "The calamity fire there has been burning for two hundred years, and it has long become a forbidden place where no one goes. Everything has been burned in the past two hundred years."
Su Yun and Ming Yufei glanced at each other, their eyes flashing with thoughts, and Xing Jiangmu's heart sank as he said, "Yufei, it's almost noon. Shouldn't you go back to the palace? Shouldn't the palace maids be waiting for you..."
"Yufei is really smart, not inferior to me." Su Yun praised.
Ming Yufei smiled and said, "Shao Shi Su is also very smart. Talking to you is effortless. I should go back now."
Su Yun politely said, "I'll escort you downstairs."
Xing Jiangmu looked confused. He saw that there was no hint of ambiguity between the two now, but instead, they were polite to each other, following proper etiquette.
But just now, there were clearly strange flames flickering in their eyes!
Xing Jiangmu was also experienced and naturally understood what the small flames in the eyes of young men and women meant!"There must be something strange about this!" he thought to himself.
Su Yun escorted Ming Yufei to the gate of the embassy and personally stopped a carriage for her. He instructed the coachman to take her to the palace and paid for the fare in advance before waving goodbye to the girl on the carriage.
Ming Yufei also waved goodbye.
After the carriage had gone far away, Su Yun suddenly said, "The woman from last night was not her."
Xing Jiangmu was taken aback. He was still wondering why Su Yun had become serious, but he didn't expect Su Yun's thoughts to jump to this matter all of a sudden.
"The woman who attacked us last night was a woman who used the Pan Yang demonization technique. If Ming Yufei knows this spell, she wouldn't need to go to the Tian Dao Ge to search for information on this matter."
Su Yun stood in front of the embassy gate, his gaze fixed straight ahead as he whispered, "But it's not her, which makes it terrifying. The waters overseas are deeper than the Shuo Fang..."
Xing Jiangmu didn't quite understand what he meant.
Following Su Yun's gaze, Xing Jiangmu saw a young woman sitting on the balcony of the second floor of the embassy across the street. It was none other than Xia Mengjue, the envoy from Da Xia.
Xia Mengjue and Xing Jiangmu were old rivals.
Xing Jiangmu was taken aback. "Xia Mengjue has always dressed provocatively, wanting to show off every part of her body. Why is she dressed so neatly today?"
Suddenly, a large bird carrying a small wooden tower on its back rushed over from the street corner and ran to the front of the embassy. It affectionately rubbed its head against Su Yun.
After a few days, several more feathers of the Tian Feng had grown out, and it happily spread its wings to show Su Yun its newly grown feathers.
This bird was an exotic species with astonishing growth speed, but it was still far from adulthood.
During these days, the Tian Feng had been living in the Jian Ge, taken care of by Li Zhuxian. With so many lessons these days, Li Zhuxian didn't have the chance to go out. The Tian Feng was also confined in the Jian Ge.
After Su Yun speculated that Boshan County was the origin of the Pan Yang chaos, he immediately activated the Tian Dao Ling and entered the Tian Dao Yuan to contact Li Zhuxian.
While he was sending Ming Yufei out, he borrowed the Tian Feng Bao Nian from Li Zhuxian and prepared to set off for Boshan County.
Su Yun called for Ying Ying and boarded the Phoenix Carriage.
Xing Jiangmu hesitated for a moment, but also climbed aboard, thinking to himself, "This young official indeed has many means. However, he didn't make any sound or movement to control the carriage. I'm afraid Ming Yufei is the same. I better follow him to prevent any trouble that we can't handle..."
Su Yun sat in the Phoenix Carriage, looking out and murmuring, "There are indeed many talents overseas. We must not underestimate them... Look at the dress of the Da Xia envoy, it seems much neater than before. Her previous dresses had slits up to her buttocks..."
Xing Jiangmu coughed heavily and said with a serious tone, "Young Official, as the Deputy Supervisor of the External Affairs Department, representing the face of Yuan Shuo, you should not only focus on women..."
The Phoenix Carriage passed by the Da Xia embassy, and Su Yun withdrew his gaze, saying, "The Da Xia embassy is opposite the Yuan Shuo embassy. Every move I make will be seen by them. The woman from last night was not Ming Yufei, and Xia Mengjue, who usually dresses provocatively, is now not showing any skin. It's very suspicious..."
Xing Jiangmu was dumbfounded.
"If it was her last night, then I will encounter her again after I leave this time."
Su Yun leaned back and said lightly, "Whether it was Xia Mengjue or not will be revealed when we arrive at Boshan County. I will cultivate for a while. Xing Jiangmu, you take control of the direction."
Xing Jiangmu agreed and was shocked in his heart, "Is this new Deputy Supervisor really only fourteen years old?"
Su Yun sat down quietly, took out the Tian Dao Ling, and entered the Tian Dao Yuan.
In the Wen Yuan Ge, the scholars from the Tian Dao Yuan who were studying abroad were all waiting for him.
Ye Luo, Bai Yuelou, and others had already sorted out the information about the Pan Yang chaos in the Jian Ge.
Su Yun checked it and found that the content in the Jian Ge was not much different from that in the Tian Dao Ge. However, there was an interesting record in the Jian Ge.
"The historical records in the Jian Ge state that the last owner of the Da Qin Holy Bell was the Saintess Ming Shengyan. Ming Shengyan led the people of Yun Du and launched a counterattack against the Pan Yang."
Su Yun carefully read it and found that the appearance of the woman in the painting was somewhat similar to Ming Yufei.
At that time, people believed that they couldn't possibly defeat the demonized Pan Yang, and going out to fight would only lead to death. However, Ming Shengyan still led a group of scholars to fight and won repeatedly. Inspired by her, Western countries also joined the war.
The war lasted for two years, and the Pan Yang chaos finally ended like this.
"After the Pan Yang chaos ended, Saintess Ming Shengyan went to explore the cause of the chaos and then mysteriously disappeared. She has never appeared again since then."
Su Yun frowned slightly.
At this time, there was chaos in Yun Du, with city guards checking everywhere. Xing Jiangmu was stopped several times on the road and only found out after inquiring that the Holy Bell was stolen last night.
"The Holy Bell was stolen last night..."Xing Jiangmu's face was ashen, his white hair trembling slightly, "Yes, the Pan Sheep demon used that bell to attack Su Shaoshi. Elder Yuanhui intervened, blocking the bell. Then, then... the bell disappeared! We must leave the city, we can't stay here for long!"
Fear and unease filled his heart.
He had spent over a decade working tirelessly to uphold the reputation of the Yuan Shuo envoy, his black hair turning white from the stress.
However, since the arrival of the new envoy, the atmosphere at the envoy's residence had changed drastically, filled with deception, theft, and violence.
"But, it seems that since the arrival of this new envoy, the reputation of Yuan Shuo has gradually improved. At the very least, the humiliation suffered by the people of Yuan Shuo has lessened considerably..." Xing Jiangmu felt a glimmer of comfort in his heart.

Xing Jiangmu was stopped several times on the road and only found out after inquiring that the Holy Bell was stolen last night. "The Holy Bell was stolen last night..."Xing Jiangmu's face was ashen, his white hair trembling slightly, "Yes, the Pan Sheep demon used that bell to attack Su Shaoshi. Elder Yuanhui intervened, blocking the bell. Then, then... the bell disappeared! We must leave the city, we can't stay here for long!" Fear and unease filled his heart. He had spent over a decade working tirelessly to uphold the reputation of the Yuan Shuo envoy, his black hair turning white from the stress. However, since the arrival of the new envoy, the atmosphere at the envoy's residence had changed drastically, filled with deception, theft, and violence. "But, it seems that since the arrival of this new envoy, the reputation of Yuan Shuo has gradually improved. At the very least, the humiliation suffered by the people of Yuan Shuo has lessened considerably..." Xing Jiangmu felt a glimmer of comfort in his heart.
